@ArtaMoeini A pseudo-event, the Thiel vs. Wokeism matchup. We don't need to swap one form of enchantment for another. The Messiah announces the advent of a depth realm superseding the shared epistemological blunder enculturated as modernity's substrative structures of legitimacy and power.

As if the agency immanent to reality itself..

No single pedagogical method is equal to the gospel transmission of a radical transformation in the meaning of power in the unitive core of the human being, whereby all the heart’s quests are revalued and hierarchies of history reversed. The last is now first and the first last.

I shouldn't worry about Thiel or his ilk. Ultimately, he represents the precarious order of false transcendence of a demonic-complex unmasked, like a thief in the night, by the closing of an incarnational circuit 'not of (t)his world.' Kingdom Reality for Real takes no prisoners.

It may help to say what the Messiah means by the 'reign of God' or 'Kingdom' or 'basileia' in New Testament Greek. It isn't heaven, a futurity, or where we go once we die. Rather, it's close at hand; a break-through into the Realness of _this_ realm; on Earth as it is in Heaven."

@richvillodas Wink: "The passion that drove the early Christians was fired above all by relief at being liberated from the delusions being spun over them by the Powers." In a form of world 'exorcism' as Rev. Dr. Lewis calls it, the Messiah effectively vaporizes a vast, diabolical enchantment.

We could have an unquestionably authentic religious experience of rebirth yet remain possessed by exactly what Jesus came to end, the "idolatrous spells cast over people" (Wink) by "the demonic complex" (Whiteley). t.co/A4SpR1d1Dg

There is another way, of course. t.co/D4ez37mP27

As for endings and beginnings, John Moriarty's "the Second Coming is but a better understanding of the First Coming", now has me imagining the transcendent shock of the Parousial Hour or Day of the Eschatological Event as, at heart, a spell-breaking event. t.co/X5v1cfuNvD

Realpolitik, the keeper of the prison, which commands us to be fooled by appearances, to respect the Emperor's New Clothes. The blindness is from the blinkers of decorum. ‘Apocalypsis’ strips away the decent draperies on which the whole big lie depends.

Quoted by@lukeburgis I'm keenly aware you occupy an awkward space in an extremely challenging context, Luke, and do it with no small measure of grit, grace, savvy and decorum. That said, in one crucial respect, I'm simply freer to speak. Here, my response to @ArtaMoeini's response to that @afpost.
